Hollywood reageert op overlijden Aretha Franklin: “Briljante zangeres”

Vandaag om 17:40 door nkdr | Bron: Twitter

Aretha Franklin was al dagen ziek en haar familie heeft die tijd benut om afscheid te nemen van de bekende zangeres. Op sociale media rouwen nu ook haar collega’s en bekende bewonderaars mee. “Ze was niet alleen een briljante zangeres, ook haar inzet voor mensenrechten is onuitwisbaar.”

Hugh Jackman deelt hoe hij zijn optreden op de Tony Awards als een van de hoogtepunten uit zijn carrière beschouwt. Barbra Streisand laat weten dat het “moeilijk is me een wereld in te beelden zonder haar” en Lenny Kravitz gaat nog verder: “De Queen of Soul heeft deze aarde verlaten om op haar troon te gaan zitten in de hemel.”

The Queen of Soul has left this earth to sit on her throne in heaven. How blessed we were to hear the best that God had to offer in her voice. RESPECT! : Mark Seliger

— Lenny Kravitz (@LennyKravitz)

Today we have lost one of the greatest. She will always be remembered and admired. Aretha Franklin, rest in peace. We love you.

— Ricky Martin (@ricky_martin)

Mourning the loss today of who shared her spirit and talent with the world. She deserves not only our RESPECT but also our lasting gratitude for opening our eyes, ears and hearts. Rest in eternal peace, my friend.

— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton)

Salute to the Queen. The greatest vocalist I've ever known.

Goodbye Ms. Aretha. You were my idol. The greatest singer of all time. Every note you sang was pure and authentic and pierced our hearts with joy and pain and life.

— Barbra Streisand (@BarbraStreisand)

Lady Soul. The first woman inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Aretha Franklin was an artist of passion, sophistication and command, whose recordings remain anthems that defined soul music. Long live the Queen.

One of the highlights of my career was singing with at The Tony Awards. It was an out of body experience for me. One of greatest singers of all time. You will be missed by all.

— Hugh Jackman (@RealHughJackman)

Let’s all take a moment to give thanks for the beautiful life of Aretha Franklin, the Queen of our souls, who inspired us all for many many years. She will be missed but the memory of her greatness as a musician and a fine human being will live with us forever. Love Paul

— Paul McCartney (@PaulMcCartney)

Elton John bracht een lange ode aan Franklin op Twitter.

I was fortunate enough to spend time with her and witness her last performance – a benefit for at St John The Divine Cathedral. She was obviously unwell, and I wasn’t sure she could perform. But Aretha did and she raised the roof.

— Elton John (@eltonofficial)

The whole world will miss her but will always rejoice in her remarkable legacy. The Queen is dead. Long live the Queen. Elton xx
